Alticast partnered with CableLabs and RDK this past week by sponsoring the RDK Training Summit at the CableLabs headquarters in Louisville, CO. This three-day event offered training sessions introducing the RDK architecture, Yocto build system and to provide a deeper insight into the individual RDK components. The event was a mix of lectures, demonstrations and interactive exercises to familiarize the attendees with building, developing, debugging and testing of RDK solutions.

Alticast sponsored by the opening night evening cocktail session. Our RDK Product Manager, Mark Johnson, demo'd our technology using the RDK platform at our table set up during the cocktail hour.

Alticast Shows Cable Operators How to use the Cloud and RDK to Deliver New Services at ANGA 2015



Alticast will demonstrate how its Cloud-based solutions enable cable operators to deliver innovative, multiscreen experiences at its booth (10.1/P40) at the ANGA 2015 trade show, June 9-11 in Cologne, Germany.

Key demonstrations at ANGA 2015 will include:

·       Alticast’s AltiPlex Cloud Services Platform (CSP) provides essential core cloud solutions for handling users, devices, metadata, advertising, big-data support and billing system integration, with a complete web-based management console. AltiPlex CSP is component based, so operators can deploy the entire solution or integrate specific components into their service.  These components include the dynamic Cloud UI solution which enables operators to deliver a sophisticated user experience (UX) to both their legacy and new set-top boxes (STBs). The Cloud UI can also provide multiple UIs to different devices in a household, for example a UI tailored for kids and one for adults. In addition, Cloud DVR is available for cloud-based recording, with storage and delivery of content providing a TV Everywhere experience.

·       The company’s AltiView™ 1 is a sophisticated UX for presenting and navigating program guides, VOD services and DVR functions, with integrations for recommendations, TV apps and more.  AltiPlex CSP provides server side support with a web-based console for AltiView 1 operations and management.  The ANGA demonstrations will include AltiView 1 running on multiple STBs and mobile devices demonstrating live operator deployments.

·       Alticast Application Framework supports multiple hardware platforms, UIs and user agents to give operators the flexibility to utilize HTML5, Java, Android, RDK and other applications on the same STB. Operators no longer need to choose one approach for multiple application types in order to provide a seamless experience.  Alticast Application Framework provides operators with the flexibility and control to quickly adapt to changing market needs.
                        
·       Alticast’s Collaborative Development Environment for code integration is a Cloud-based solution that enables system-on-a-chip (SoC) vendors, open software providers, multi-system operators (MSOs) and system integrators to utilize a single workflow and release structure for multiple platform code development projects.  The CDE supports any code development effort, including RDK and Android STB software integrations.

Media and other parties interested in meeting with Alticast executives at ANGA 2015 should contact alticast@mobilitypr.com to schedule a time.
